Title: black face mask
Post by: countryboy3006 on March 16, 2020, 02:18:13 PM
I have been trying to find a black face mask to wear when hunting out of a blind.  I would prefer a 3/4 mask but would take any style at this point.  biggest thing is I want one that won't be too hot.  most of the ones I have found are more for wearing in the winter and haven't been able to find a light weight one.  Anyone know of any good ones out there?

These are what I use, very thin, you don't sweat in them at all and you can wear a hate without having to resize it they are so thin. https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B0759RSLG6/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1

It's not ideal, but I picked up one you wear under a motorcycle helmet at Walmart for 4 or 5 dollars. It covers the whole head, except for the eyes, which I don't like. I think I'm going to just try slipping it on if I have turkeys coming in instead of wearing it the whole time. I hope someone gives you a better answer, so I can get a different one. Mine is similar to the one above.

By the way, as anybody that saw me at the North East Call Makers Summit can tell you I am one of those people that sweat profusely and I do not normally like my face covered because of that in warmer weather, these do not bother me at all to wear when it is hot out, even if I am sweating heavy.

Here y'all go. I have this one in regular camo and really like it.

You might take a look at the Buff sun protection covers. Buff's are light weight and you can configure for different coverage

Primos use to make one. Think It was called stretch fit

sit in the back of the blind and you won't need one.

I like the one strutstopper posted. I have it in Obsession and Bottomland and the same style in Nomad brand. Large and loose enough to pull up over the back of my hat and keep your face cool also. I like the look of the Eclipse version shown.

Not sure if this will help but an all black lightweight merino will balaclava might do the trick?

I bought a brown one for deer hunting. Mainly to keep my face warm in the tree, when it gets cold in Minnesota.

Thanks I  for the replies.  I ordered 2 of the ones strutstopper posted.  Look like they will work good for me and my daughter.  I'm hoping I can get her to see her first turkey up close this year.
